Abstract

The molecular interaction volume model (MIVM) is a two-parameter model, meaning it can predict the thermodynamic properties in a multicomponent liquid alloy system using only the coordination numbers calculated from the ordinary physical quantities of pure liquid metals and the related binary infinite dilute activity coefficients, γ i∞ and γ j∞ , which avoids somewhat adjustable fitting for the binary parameters of B ji and B ij. In comparison with the subregular solution model (SRSM), the prediction effect of the MIVM is of better stability and safety because it has a good physical basis.
